Yes, please indeed. Anything is better than nothing from you.

I can't think of much, since clearly the kill hasn't been blocked, so only the rolecop (I'm not sure if that's useful info) or town powers could have been, but it can't hurt to do this. I agree with the rest of your points being worthwhile.

And you're right about the uselessness of freezeblade's N1 target. He couldn't have blocked the tracker, didn't block the fruit vendor and any scum he blocked isn't useful because it wasn't the kill (or it was but that's still no use)

And I meant Freezeblade was the most powerful PR townie. Fruit vendor and even night tracker seem pretty weak and don't allow for much strategizing.

Ninja: yeah it's another thing to add to my checklist. Far from certain.

Hi guys! Made it back safe and sound. Thankfully just missed Hurricane Bud which was expected to hit my resort this weekend . The boys were both angels on the plane ride, which made the whole thing a lot easier. As promised, I will try to give you guys some better content. Thank you for putting up with my lacklustre content this past week.

So, let's get started and find some scum.

Okay, Mark, I want to say this as advice to a newbie that I think will be useful to you regardless of whether you are Town or scum. Spending a huge amount of time building a giant reads post is less important than actually talking with people and interacting in the thread. Ask questions, say what you think. Your reads are just a summary. They are the end product of your scum hunting. Rereading the whole game over and over again is very tedious and unfun. Don't do it. Just talk to people.

Now, let's talk. You voted SDK in D2 and said that was your current view. Can you explain why? Which points for scum!SDK did you like? Which points for Town!SDK did you like?

How has your view on Madge changed? You were pushing her pretty aggressively in D1, then just stopped and started voting for Vic/SDK.

wam wrote:On my read through ran out of time before I reached SDK. I still think hes scum but wouldn't be too massively surprised if he turns up town. Issue is as boomfrog has stated SDK can do look townie and reasonable as scum. SO with 2 hours or so left am leaving my vote where it is.

What influenced your view that led you to believe SDK might be Town after all? Why didn't you pursue this earlier in the day? If you were concerned about this, why wouldn't you make reading SDK a priority to reread?

What do you think of the Mark/moody wagons at the end of the day? What's your current read on moody?

It certainly sounds to me like you are saying "plytho's point is good, but SDK's defense feels fine, so it's null over all". If not, how should I be interpreting this? (Also, apologies but I'm going to have to scale back the roleplaying so you're going to have to put up with more of me and less of you ).

moody wrote:Basically, my opinion of SDK started downward around post 8, reached a nadir about posts 18-20, and has been working its way back up since. Had I been reading through at the time instead of watching Deadlist Catch, I may have even convinced myself to vote SDK. At this point, he's up to slightly townie according to my read; posts 25 and 26 really helped.

moody wrote:Okay, I'm going to play along with a hypothesis here. Sabrar is going full blaze against SDK, and it looks to me that plytho says here that I'm already suspicious of SDK, I just don't realize it yet. I'm thinking that lynching SDK might be very educational. To me, if SDK actually does turn out town, it would raise significantly my suspicion of {Sabrar,plytho}. There also seems to be something with Vicarin folding into it on the scum!SDK side of things should that come to pass; more to analyze D2.

Okay, so at the end of D1, you had SDK up to "slightly townie". You ultimately voted for him D1 for information. Why did you go back to scumreading him D2?

Well, I was voting for him end of D1.

Can you explain what you were talking about here? Okay, you were voting for him, but your vote D1 wasn't because of plytho's case.

Why didn't you include SDK in your D2 rereads? What do you think of the Mark/moody wagons at the end of the day? What's your current read on wam?

I lean town on BF. I thought it was suspicious how quickly he changed from SDK to Wam, but on a reread of him I realize he talked about it quite a bit before he switched.

FB:

Spoiler:

ConfirmsSays will vote those who vote off conf postVotes JimBob for that reasonExplains who Snark isCreates arbitrary groupings, and assigns town/indie/mafia to them randomnlySays they were selected randomnly to RP SnarkSays voting off conf post is almost always nothing more than a coincidence. Jokingly asks if Wam is claiming scum. Talks about the groups he made. Says he is not voting Madge, but Jimbob, but nor a serious vote, so he unvotes. Says we shouldn't stress about SK until we know it exists. Says fruit reciever shouldn't claim. Says lynching him will "do no good for town, and be great for scum."Talks about groupings, and how Orange is acting weird and calling each other townie. Also says Madge v. Me is super interesting.Talks aout my vocab mistakeVotes JimBob for calling him out for lurkingExplains JimBob voteSays there is not much to talk aboutCounters SDK's scumread of himDidn't have time to read through wagonD2:Nothing to claim from N1Requests a replacementSays if he isn't set to be replaced and about to be lynched he will full claimSays SDK being 100% confident is typical of meta

I'm neutral on FB. He votes JimBob D1 in what feels like a very OMGUS vote. Says there is not much to talk aout D1, but fails to talk about Vicarin or SDK wagon. I'm neutral on him RN.

JimBob:Note: I won't do the spoiler thing from here on. Not enough time.Jimbob is very towny to me. Yes, he has me as scum, but he is putting a lot of work into reads and not making any mistakes that would be suspicious. Town.

LG:I'm fine with the Vic vote. Yes, Vic was town, but LG's vote, while a tiebreaker, wasn't an oppertunistic scummy tiebreaker. He said earlier he would vote if a NL or tie was coming up. Calls Madge out for her switch on SDK which I support. If SDK is scum Madge may also be scum I think.

I assume you're referring to moody being scum here? Has SDK's or freezeblade's flip had any impact on this read?

FreezeBlade's flip is surprising, but doesn't shed much light on alignments since no one besides SDK was really willing to lynch him with me. On a sidenote I also suspect that FB was rolecopped N1. If I were scum I wouldn't have targeted such a scummy town player unless I was very confident they were a PR. Actually, I suspect scum were too aware that a FB lynch wouldn't happen. If I were to reread, I would want to look for who was overly accepting of the PR soft claim. Not JimBob, as he was too explicit about it, but maybe others who blithely accepted it in behavior but didn't want to talk about it.

So that leaves my SDK analysis fairly unchanged. Making wam and moody top suspects.

I know. That was a joke.

LaserGuy's main post, apart from the intro sounds like he's moving back towards normal LaserGuy. I like his questions towards Mark, Madge and especially moody. It seems to me that he's starting to belatedly get into scum hunting (admittedly, there are RL reasons for the delay).

@Mark - echoing some of what LaserGuy said, I don't expect you to post giant reads lists like my own. Every player should play in a way that's most comfortable for them. For me, I have the time, and find it useful to make a big reads list once or twice a game day, but it is much more important to just talk about what's going on and to answer questions. If you have to choose between rereading and following the thread, choose the latter.

On your partial reads list: I'm assuming you wrote this overnight. If not, why is freezeblade there? I note you didn't say anything about his soft claim. Indeed, it's not even in your summary. Why not? On your read of me, you say that I'm not making any suspicious mistakes, but that I'm misreading you. Do you think my read of you is justified? If not, why not and why is this not suspicious to you? I broadly agree with your comments about BoomFrog and LaserGuy. Finally, it would be helpful to get an idea of where you stand on the remaining players, although a full reread of them isn't necessary, as noted above.

@laser he didn't have quiet the desperate scum going to be lynched tone I would expect. I thought the counter wagons T the end of the day were odd as based on the flip it could be scum trying to avoid being on a town lynch. I need to 're read to be more certain though .

Basically focused on finishing off SDK. Some interest in fruit vendor stuff.

His final post sums up the main point I've noticed, and that is he has spectacularly bad luck in his reads. All four town flips he has at some point thought of as scummy. Of course it could be he's scum and is just finding players scummy in order to vote for them. Not that I can find much of anything to support that.

BoomFrog wrote:I still have no idea what town moody really looks like.

So, we have a confirmed townie who presented us one suspicion (jimbob), but there is nothing to make his opinion better or worse than anyone else's, since he can't know that he blocked anything. SDK generally has a good head on his shoulders, so we should look seriously at his reads lists, now that we know he was not scum.

We have a (still hidden) even-night tracker, who theoretically has one result.

We have a (still hidden) fruit vendor, who has theoretically given two fruits out.

We know that the Mafia consists of a Goon, a Strongman (no longer particularly relevant) and a Rolecop, who is likely to gradually pick off our power roles, but possibly reveal himself in the process (but not now in Night 3).

I don't see any way to leverage this stuff right now to improve our situation, which means we're left with normal scum hunting. Asking power roles to claim at this point likely gives us no scum counter-claims (because scum can just kill the claimed PR in the night period), so pretty negative utility there.

On D1, plytho had produce what he felt was a strong case on SDK. He also pointed out in my read of SDK that I had paralleled some of his concerns. At that point we went off on the Vicarin wild goose chase, and I never got the info I was looking for. Don't recall exactly how I felt about him at the time. Some people had some way of concantenating the Vicarin lynch to deduce something about SDK. D2 I was still wanting to squeeze what info I could out of a SDK lynch, including trying to test why plytho was being so adamant about SDK (which incidentally means that I was in part voting SDK based on plytho's case). The reads I was doing D2 were to look for other possible scum than SDK.

Mark is a perfectly acceptable lynch target. I still have Fridge Mafia Peacfule Whale pings from him. Not sure what set off SDK on me. He's always said I've been an enigma for him, so if he saw something that looked to him to be pingy, he may have felt like he needed to go with it. I'm concerned that BoomFrog is being opportunistic, and continuing that today with the early vote.

I'm going to do these one by one since I don't know when I'll have time to do them and I don't want to wait until the end of the weekend to post my thoughts.

Wam: Yeah, having the 4 confirmed townies at the bottom of your first reads list isn't a great look. That said, the reasoning for their placement is ok and most people found those people some degree of scummy during the game so far.

This statement about LaserGuy looking scummy on an SDK or Vicarin flip feels like it comes from a townie perspective (considering both are town). It doesn't feel like reasoning that scum would come up with.

[note for later: LaserGuy's eighth wagon D1 (Vicarin) gets townie points since it's way easier and less risky for scum to just join an existing town wagon.]

Wam's top 2 proposal (instead of an imho more informative 3 or 4) is a little suspicious.

I'm also not liking his 'wouldn't be surprised at town!SDK' near the end of D2. Especially coupled with a D3 start saying he's surprised.

The push on the boom vote is also quite weird.

So, in conclusion: some suspicious stuff in wam's content, on thing that feels quite townie. Could definitely be scum but his actual designation will depend on where I land with my other reads.

How does this align with all the statements saying I like bussing earlier in the game?

Also picking on the bottom 2 rather than 3 or 4 point feels very nit picky.

Okay, so why didn't you pursue this at all? Why didn't you make it a priority to reread SDK in your end of day reads?

You were fishing for a lynch against a soft claimed PR in a situation where it would be unlikely he would return to full claim before end of day.

Why did you not believe freezeblade when he softed, but did believe Madge under similar circumstances in NNY?

I had other reasons to already consider Madge town, and if I recall correctly her claim came at a time that was not strategic to scum. FB's claim came at exactly the time scum would false-claim. My expected outcome was a hard claim by FreezeBlade and we wouldn't lynch him unless there was a counter claim and time to move votes. As we can see softclaiming didn't protect town!FB, but hard claiming would have made things harder for scum!FB.

Okay, what information were you hoping to gain aside from something on plytho? So you believe plytho is scum now?

LaserGuy wrote:Okay, what information were you hoping to gain aside from something on plytho? So you believe plytho is scum now?

1. A lot of the usual wagon info, those who came on late, those who refused. It got a lot more complicated when you decided "hey, let's throw Vicarin into the mix" and got enough people who were seeing him as scummy to follow along. The lynch being on D2 let scum have a more refined strategy for how to handle the wagon.

2. If SDK had been lynched D1 and you'd asked me that start of D2, I probably would have said "Hell yeah". With plytho having diversified his examination since, I am not as sure as I might otherwise have been. Plus we have Sabrar's flip as town, and he was just as gung ho about SDK.

No fruit for me today. I guess the fruit vendor didn’t want to use the fruit list on me . That’s OK, I forgive you this time!

In terms of setup, we are left with an even-night tracker who would have just got their first result, and the fruit vendor, who is a named townie. As I said before I breadcrumbed my fruit so we can deal with a counterclaim (and if I need a replacement, I’ll tell my replacement about the breadcrumb assuming the mods allow it - but cross that bridge when we come to it). With 3 mafiosi, the tracker’s odds of clearing someone are low. Hopefully we can keep them alive!

What am pretty sure I meant was, “SDK’s defense feels fine, so I don’t want to give you townie points for finding someone suspicious when SDK is not being especially suspicious”. I am pretty sure I later came around (rather than making that post before I voted for SDK), but my SDK vote early in the day was partially because I was trying to, if not imitate Bessie’s meta, at least shake off my non-voting meta for roleplaying purposes. Which I know makes my actions hard to interpret.‘Laserguy, why does it look bad for BoomFrog to point out Freezeblade claimed PR?

Why would we vote off a PR softclaim? I don’t get it. I could just as easily say without FB’s flip that BF was trying to push his scumbuddy to claim a PR to out the real gaolkeeper for example?

Meta note: I fly away on the 25th, I have an exam on Tuesday and Wednesday, and completely forgot about that when I was planning my work handover type stuff, so I’m going to have some really hectic work time next week, and will need a replacement on the 25th. I can/will phone post when I’m on holiday but I’d prefer not to have to because they’d be super half-assed even by Madge standards.

Mods: can you please see if someone is willing to replace me on the 25th?

I'm writing a supernatural romance novel, it updates the first weekend of every month. You can find it here.

So, scum is going with the classic "eliminate everyone who is contributing so that we are stuck with a dying thread that is easy to push along" strategy.

At the moment, I have a couple of decent town reads, but no real scummy reads. I do hope to do some reading over the weekend, but I'm also trying to revive two Windows BSOD computers… I hate Windows, just for the record.

Mpolo: His D1 content looks pretty good. There’s not much of it but his reads seem sensible and I feel like he gave me and SDK an honest read. His move to Vicarin post-deadline also feels natural. I kind of feel like scum would prefer to lynch “scarier townie” SDK. D2 mpolo is concerning as he didn’t vote at all. He’s also mentioned several people he intended to read but never got to them: LaserGuy and moody, SDK and wam. This following post has opinions on Mark and madge. He does provide a promised read on me and after a long time also wam and finally freezeblade. Missing are LaserGuy, moody and SDK.

Mpolo’s D2 has a bit of an active lurky feel. There are obvious RL reasons for reduced content, but mpolo’s noncommittal position is a comfortable one for scum.

mpolo wrote:At the moment, I have a couple of decent town reads, but no real scummy reads.

I am pretty convinced that you, plytho, are town. I don't think that scum would have been so vocal a leader in trying to lynch a townie over two full days. I am reading Madge as townie, which is unusual for me. I think there was one more, but I'm trying to get out to walk a little bit while we have nice weather.

LaserGuy wrote:Now, let's talk. You voted SDK in D2 and said that was your current view. Can you explain why? Which points for scum!SDK did you like? Which points for Town!SDK did you like?

I liked the RFing point against SDK the most. While I liked BF's point about SDK saying things that would be stupid as scum, it didn't sway me enough, especially as I didn't have time to look at the last few pages in depth. I also was willing to vote SDK at a lower bar, as he was close to lynching, and so many people had classified people based on the SDK flip. We need to read with SDK flip in mind.

I didn't notice FB's soft claim, because each section was written in isolation (in that I only looked at the persons posts, not others posts about the person). I didn't think of it as a soft claim when I first saw it. I think your scum read on me was justified at the time. I'll try to remedy the issues you mentioned.

On LG's Madge question, I decided to switch to SDK/Vic because I felt the Madge lynch wasn't going to work. Now, knowing there are now wolves, I am more convinced it was TvT with a lot of OMGUS from me. Which reminds me...It would be really nice to get someone other than Madge to claim fruit. This is to confirm her fruit claim. I could see a situation, albeit unlikely, where she is SK or wolf and lies about fruit claim. 1 NK would make sense because she, possibly with a team mate, would be waiting for the scum town fight, before turning on town.Note: I am not saying Madge is a werewolf or SK. I am merely saying she could be, and a second fruit claim would be nice.

@Madge: I do not think that BoomFrog was attempting to signal (IMHO scum only very rarely attempt to communicate this sort of thing in thread). I do think it is possible that scum!BoomFrog could have been testing the waters for lynching an unclaimed PR late in the day.

@mpolo: Could you give me an ordered Town to scum list? Don't need reasons right not, just whatever you have.

@Mark: What would be the point of Madge lying about receiving a fruit? She isn't claiming fruit vendor herself. Can you explain what you mean by the lynch not working?

Will try to put some concrete thoughts down this evening when I have some time to do some rereads.
